Drop us a line at the Orillia Perch Festival

One-Tank Trip for
April 8/17

(c) By Jim Fox

Go fish!

Orillia’s the place
where they’ve even melted the ice at the great fishing spot, the Narrows
connecting Lake Simcoe and Lake Couchiching.

The perch are
waiting as the waters warm and they’ll be quick to take the bait.

If the fishers are
lucky, they’ll pull in one of 70 tagged perch worth $500 each during the
Orillia Perch Festival from April 22 to May 13.

Boats and anglers
jam the Narrows for the Orillia Perch Festival.

There are also
thousands of dollars in daily, weekly and grand prize draws including five
tagged fish worth $1,000 each, three of them a Bonus Jackpot perch from Casino
Rama, in this live-release program.
